Since I've lost track of whose turn it should be, I'll turn it off, and back on again:
His stomach is churning - but he enjoys it! (9)
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Masochist (anagram of his stomach, a masochist being one who enjoys pain in general and .NET in particular).

Successful reboot: you are up tomorrow.

A slightly different crossword thread: four clues with connected answers - who or what connects them? (6)
Green lady ... (5)

Constant exercise channel ... (4)

That's the cryptic answer.

OK It's been a few hours. Got as far as "Olive spinach"...
Software rusts. Simon Stephenson, ca 1994. So does this signature. me, 2012

That's two correct - might be enough to get the link.

Ah, but if you change your name to McPlanetface by deed poll, they'll have no choice.

I would suggest something more modest, like Frank, Rodney or Alfonso.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."
If software development were a circus, we would all be the clowns.

Unless it's only half the size of Earth, in which case "Eric".

You mean like Mars? A typical Italian. Pompous name, but would not knock his head if he ran underneath the kitchen table.

All I have to do is to sit down in front of my telescope and wait for 10,000 to 20,000 years! Easy-peasy...

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Planet O'Planeton is still valid, right?

As Herschel tried to name Uranus "Georgium Sidus" after King George, perhaps an English discoverer should call it "Elizabethium Sidus".
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

How about Darth Sidious?

Is that the Welsh equivalent?

That'd be Owain Glyndwr Sidus!

How long will it be a planet for?
Poor old Pluto got the push; Sedna constantly gets taunted with "you can be a planet now - ha! Only kidding ..."; Eris barely gets a look in - the minute that I get to name this one Trevor, the powers that be will declare that Trevor is not really a planet after all, I'll get very upset and there'll be tears before bed-time.
I'm not playing until someone guarantees rights for trans-Neptunian objects.

The ultra-wide definition of plant faction is supposedly going to push for a redefinition of approximately "big enough to collapse into a sphere under its own weight and melt enough to have a different mix of materials in the core and outer layers" at the next iteration of the conference responsible for the current one. That would put ~200 planets in our solar including most major moons. That'd make Pluto a planet again, and also make the definition broad enough to be almost meaningless in popular opinion.
Unfortunately for team I Less Than Three Pluto  there's no plausible definition based on scientific criteria that would elevate Pluto while keeping the list short enough to make membership reasonable. And no amount of internet rage is likely to create a narrow definition that ends "... and Pluto because Elephanting because." 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
--Zachris Topelius
Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies.

I think that the first definition might get a fair few of us listed as planets - I certainly fit the criteria!
